I am running the latest dedicated server on 64 bit ubuntu feisty fawn.

Players cannot join, but bots work fine (I can see them in arrse) and they generate kill logs.

Whenever I see someone trying to join, nothing happens at all. Strangely, EnEsCe's port setting tester says everything is fine and it can join as spectator.

There are other worlds than these

What's your server IP, so I can try joining?

It may be some sort of firewall/routing issue.

Yeah most likely, but how many people have tried to join because one of those guys there has their BE not responding (Insta-ban) and the other guy probably has a bad ping? Crappy Internet?

The BE not responding was the port check; it joins the game as spectator but gets banned because it doesn't respond to BE messages.
